change hierarchy of routines. The current flow is as follows:
loader -> process_switch -> FML::Process::Flow -> each process 1. loader resolves version dependence 2. process_switch loads requred package 3. main::ProcessStart() (exporeted to main:: at FML::Process::Flow) controlls flow. 4. details of each flow is described in FML::Process::Something et. al.

-loader C<[-c main.cf]> C<[--debug]> C<[--ctladdr]> ml_home_dir
+loader C<[-c main.cf]> C<[--debug]> C<[--ctladdr]> [ml_home_dir]
=head1 DESCRIPTION
+The loader resolves fml version dependence.
+It checks /etc/fml/main.cf and prepare @INC for some fml version.
+The real process switch routine is dependent on fml version.
+
+C<libexec/fml/loader> switches itself to a program specified by $0.
+C<libexec/fml/$VERSION/process_switch> analyzes several conditions
+specified by main.cf, @INC and $0 et. al.
+The swithing is done in libexec/fml/$VERSION/process_switch.
+See C<libexec/fml/$VERSION/process_switch> for more details on process
+switching.
